Multiple issues have been found in nginx. The issues are fixed in nginx 1.15.6, 1.14.1. * CVE-2018-16843 CVE-2018-16844 http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-announce/2018/000220.html Two security issues were identified in nginx HTTP/2 implementation, which might cause excessive memory consumption (CVE-2018-16843) and CPU usage (CVE-2018-16844). The issues affect nginx compiled with the ngx_http_v2_module (not compiled by default) if the "http2" option of the "listen" directive is used in a configuration file. * CVE-2018-16845 http://mailman.nginx.org/pipermail/nginx-announce/2018/000221.html A security issue was identified in the ngx_http_mp4_module, which might allow an attacker to cause infinite loop in a worker process, cause a worker process crash, or might result in worker process memory disclosure by using a specially crafted mp4 file. -- Gentoo Security Scout Vladimir Krstulja
